theres about as many rsx's as civics around me. but 95% of them are stock so i have no one to really talk to about them! thats why we all gotta mod so we can be originals in some way.

Yea, i remember 2 years ago when i got mine, like 3 months after they rolled onto the dealership lot. I saw maybe 1 or 2 other ones for about the fiorst 4 months or so but as soon as spring rolled around they just started popping up like zits on that kid actor who plays harry potter (Puberty's a bish..... How they gonna film all the movies before that kid is old enough to drink a beer between scenes????)

Luckily in my area I seem to be the only person with a 2k2 model. Everyone else has either 2k or 2k1, and a lot of older models too.

So i don't really mind seeing other same year cars. I still have only seen 1 person have the same color as me while driving around.

LoL I had my rice machine back in February 2000 baby! I was only 17 back then and working for $7 per hour (as much as they would pay me at City Hall, where I still work at), so I could only afford a DX model. The only 2 new 7th gen Civics shipped to my local dealership was the DX that I bought and a factory suped-up EX. Couldn't compete for the EX price, so I bought me the DX.

Sure I paid $16g for a DX (which is the price of a 2k1 Civic EX now), but at least the first in town to rock a 7th gen Civic! [IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-cool.gif[/IMG]
I payed it in full too! Leases, loans and financing are for chumps! How can you not afford a Civic????[IMG]i/expressions/laugh2.gif[/IMG]

It's a Civic... what do you expect? Everyone drives a Civic. The Civic is like a car that almost anybody would drive.

maybe we shouldn't expect our cars to be so limited, because hell it isn't like it is a damn NSX or anything. We're just special cause we modifiy our cars and consult others about it on this site most of us anyway. So we can single our selves out that way.

I have a white 7th gen Civic. White doesn't seem to be too common in the 7th gen so I feel like I have some individuality.

Why do you think the Civic sells so much? It's not gonna be the # of people who choose to mod them, it's gonna be the one's who're simply looking for a reliable small car with room in the back seat that'll get them and/or their company here to there and anywhere there's pavement. The most purchased Honda Civic has been the sedan because of this and just to throw in a simple fact out of speculation... THEY'RE MOSTLY IN SILVER. I swear, that is the most common color. I'm not ******* on anyone's car but it's made me glad I did not choose Satin Silver Metallic. On the outside it just seemed to have gotten old because everyone has it and you don't even need to be driving a Civic to have the same color. It used to look catchy a few years ago when more car makers started painting their cars silver because it was sleek. Really, I'm not insulting you guy's car because at least you got black interior compared to my beige, hehehe.

We only make up a small portion of the people who buy modified Civic. I see more stock coupes (that appear to be used not to modify) than modified ones. Around here, modified sedans are kinda rare.

I see lots of 2k1 and 2k2 sedans around. Mostly with old ladies driving them. Not sure where all the coupes are at. I don't see too many on the roads around where I am.

EDIT: By the way, my coupe is silver and I love it. I wanted to get clover green at first (the HX only comes in silver, black, and green). I thought the beige interior on the clover green HX was too umm [IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-puke.gif[/IMG] and for some reason I didn't want black. So I took silver and I'm happy now.

At my college there are 3 red 7'th gen coupes, 3 black, and about 10 silver...I won't even bother counting the sedans

Only a few of them have mods though
